Illuminated Iconographic Tibetan Calligraphy

Title:
The Beauty of Change

Acrylic on a hand tinted background of high quality watercolour paper, 57x76cm, 2007

The Tibetan Uchen calligraphy in Chinese ink translates as Impermanence: mi rtag pa.

Five buds to bloom, to delicate decay: Pride, jealousy, attachment, stupidity and anger, a turmoil cocktail, an emotional entanglement, even the most beautiful fall.
